Releases

This is my contribution to the first compilation 'GLYPHS : WOOD' that has been released on the label @qeone.rec
I am very proud and happy to be part of this amazing project. 
This wonderful collection of tracks is really unique as all pieces are based on one concept which is completely sound design oriented. The idea behind this release series is to have one material or substance which will then be interpreted by the artists. For this very first compilation the label chose the material Wood.

GLYPHS : WOOD

Branches

Tenzia - Branches [QEONE]

Ice cannot dim,
in its slowthrum beating pulses,
its hard crackle give,
all that bubbles up through
patches of cold,
pulling on nerves
quivering under touch,
and with it,
wuthering
weatherwell and groundswell
comes clarity

the epiphanies
of carrying hands,
cold to the touch,
bringing fire down
the line, down
the drum, up
the axion, through
the backing roll echoing,
to the place inside
the Place
they told us
was broken,
but is alive
with polyrhythms
no cool grip
could keep out,
nor keep silent.

Words: Kwasu D. Tembo

IO:028 || Tenzia - Cold to the Touch

Munich based IO records is rounding out 2023 in style with their final release of the year, ‘Cold To The Touch’ by audiovisual artist, Anthony O, aka Tenzia. As the label writes, “Anthony O, is a professional artist and music producer with a background in traditional and digital art.The focal point of the Tenzia project is to overcome conventional thought patterns and genre boundaries. It explores the intersection of opposites, engaging with the interplay between the aesthetic and the grotesque, organic and inorganic, positive and negative, both visually and acoustically.”

Keeping in line with these themes, ‘Epiphany’ is a wonderfully unique entity. Defying any attempt to classify it, the track carries several different feelings depending on which voice or element your mind focuses on. Rolling percussion pings around, giving an almost dub or deep bass vibe, while the pads and flashing synths evoke dark, atonal techno moments. Combined, it’s like a mental breath of fresh air that breaks all molds.

Epiphany and the rest of Tenzia’s EP will be released into the world via IO on December 13th.
